I agree with some reservations about this being completly generalised. There are still some successfull companies that rewards good players. But yes, there are very few and most of the rest are stuck coasting at a glacial pace, doing stuff

It has gotten a bit cheaper, a lot easier and somewhat better lately. But I agree that it does not make that much sense because you end up with a product that has many flaws and is a bit annoying to use. The main factor is being able to sel

Genelecs are a no brainer if you have the money (the small ones are not too expensive but if you want power, wallet will get hurt a lot). It's crazy how good those speakers sound for how small they are. And extremely well built of cour

While OLED definitely has this problem, his real issue is using a too small DPI monitor. It's not a real problem in OLED equiped smartphones with high DPI so it really shouldn't be a problem on monitors as well. If you wan to poin

It's a very cynical view but I kind of agree. In those kinds of jobs, the only rewards for doing the job well and fast is just more mindless jobs of the same type. It would be usefull if you would receive a benefit for doing the job be

What is funny to me is that once the plan was drawn, much of the usefull "hard" work was done. Humans are not perfect like robot so it is pointless to try to find the "perfect" path, in any case, mistakes will be made. I

I think you are right because people who bought minis got them for a specific reason and now there is just nothing in the market that can pretend to replace it. My own mini has not been upgraded to latest iOS but I know it is in short proba

Same. Something like the Citroen AMI but with better range and speed, probably slighty bigger and around 10K. I doubt it's going to happen because that would kill a large part of the market : every familly that needs 2 cars just becaus

It's pretty much the results of inter-platform competition. None of the actors want to use what the others are making for various reasons which I think are valid. For example, history has showned that being completly dependant on Apple

Yeah but I would argue that they just used cheaper ressources since historically has been cheaper than compute. It's not clear if compute can be cheaper than storage still today. On one hand you can afford to use less storage but you h

I agree, I tried those brands and they are more expensive while being less performant and even worse lasting. Nike has lost a battle of trends but their foundation is much more serious. People dismissing Nike as just being a fashion brand r

In the construction world, it's basically the separation between architects and builders. Sure you can definitely build things and figure out things along the way. But for any sufficiently complex project, it's unlikely to yield g

As a French I feel that the SNCF is pretty good. We like to complain about it but I have had a few minor problems (3 hours pause from locomotive breakdown, or 2 hours stop to allow cleaning after a suicide) but nothing too bad. There are on

It does have a great impact. Nowadays TTL are pretty short because infra is very dynamic, you don't necessarily hit the cache that often. And a random webpage will pull assests from all over the place, with many different domains/

That would be interresting is Native Switft apps would work and feel better than electron apps. But they are not much better and only consume less RAM (not that big of a deal outside of Apple hardware).

I have had Safari syncing bugs since basically 2016. But now I can't be bothered to even use it, no matter how good it gets. Chrome extensions, functionning ad blocking (without having to pay for a stupid Apple blessed extension) and j

I still don't understand who actually use iOS/iPadOS apps heavily. Everyone I know just try to do stuff with them and at some point go find a computer to actually get shit done, frustrated with how backward everything is on those

Cook is just a major idiot. It's actually surprising he didn't completly fuck everything over. But it just shows how strong the fondation and initial strategy was. I'm always annoyed by random idiots arguing that since Cook m

In my opinion the problem is the lack of good GUI editing apps for purely HTML documents and no standard for self-contained HTML docs (that would bundle all the ressources into a single clickable file). Word for the web basically, but with

And sometimes it randomly scramble the output for no good reason. I think their HMDI implementation completly suck as well, I have had to get an USB-C adaptor to make it work properly. Macs with external displays don't make a lot of se

I started on Macs and I tend to agree. They have some good things on the hardware side but you have pay a lot for it, and it's not just about the money.

They just need to feel superior about their Macs. My experience is that Windows wake just as fast if not faster. But in typical Apple fanboy fashion, they will compare a 2K laptop to a random 500 cheapo laptop. Apple real strength is in the

The sensibilities of the people running the librairies are extremely political. One could argue that since their employment largely lies outside of market forces, they get chosen or self-select for political reasons. Having the power to ch

Yeah I don't get the hate. The only issues I have had with the "Pro" version of Windows were hardware related and it wasn't a big deal.

As someone who sarted with Apple in the PowerPC days I couldn't agree more. To me it seems like the only real advantage is good battery, but I can't figure out who exactly is running powerfull/complicated software on the go w

I don't feel like we are in disagreement. I don't advocate to make everything needlesly tedious on mobile. I'm just saying that you have to do the basics right for the "commoner" but it is not necesseraly needed for

by seec 10mo ago
Yeah, pretty much this. One thing that is really important to understand is that power is not something that is uniformely needed everywhere at the same level. Traditionally, power plants were created close to where industries needed them.

I agree a lot. China is very good at industrialising stuff because they are very obedient and efficient on matters that are already known. Once the west has identified a worthwhile endeavor, they are quite quick at reproducing and churning
